I'm traveling north on the west coast, in Bakersfield Ca. I found a Shell station that was $4.69 ( this area is gaged with oil wells ) less than six miles from that Shell station is a Chevron where I paid $3.69 ............ thanks to a phone app known as "gas buddy" , it works for diesel also.

That is for low end regular grade gasoline ....... one buck a gallon and within six miles of each other in an oil producing area not far from a refinery.

I use gas buddy regularly and it works well. On another note NH has proposed a fuel tax I believe is 12 cents over 3 or 4 Yeats. The gov. Said she would sign it if it hits her desk. Its supposed to be for rd repair, I think it will go to a big project in the state (I93) thats is said to depleted its funds already.

Canada is producing a lot of oil.So much that they are working on a pipeline to Texas.US oil will be added to the line and sold to china and other countries.Not one drop will be used in Canada or the US.Look up Keystone pipe line.Read it and weep.

Just passed fuel station next town over and on rd is down to 3.99. Seems like it spikes comes down a little but never back to before the spike. Consumers are happy it came down. Then the cycle starts over. Just like everything else send it over seas.

How much money do you think the tug/barge and rail companies stand to lose if they put that pipeline in ? Anyone seen all the crude moving out of Albany NY lately..? I was on a 125k barrel vessel filling in a few months ago, one unit left, we pulled in, 9 hours later the big unit pulled in behind us. Would you wanna lose millions in work to a pipeline..?

The refineries care less about how it gets there, as long as they can get it the cheapest way. When enough trains blow up towns, they will seal their own coffin shut on the matter. The trains have pretty much abandoned many miles out this way, so we aren't losing much. And about to abandon even more. Some of the line is already run by a forest company anyway to move wood, both in NB and Maine.
